The domin- ation of Austria by the Kaiser has been one of the most re- markable accomplishments of this admittedly remarkable man.

These younger statesmen have a lenger view than the aged and sorrow-stricken head of the Hapsburg dynasty. They are more alive to the trend of events than Franz Josef can possibly be. In fact, they see clearly where this thing is go- ing to end. Though the Allies are agreed that no peace terms around American munitions will be discussed with Germany until the Allies are ready to do so, the position of Austria is entirely different.
